On the mobile site, I often tap on a thread but the one that opens is 2-3 lines higher.

Does that make sense? So there will be a list of Active threads:

AIBU to think pigs can fly?

Help with Potty training

Oh no, I'm covered in bees!

I'll click on "Bees" and it will take me to "pigs". I don't always notice straight away either. It's really annoying! The page isn't even jumping unless it happens in the split second that I click every time.

I am using android 5.1.1, standard Samsung browser.

Yeah that's been going on for months, very annoying. Chrome/Android 4.3 here (and yes, the age of the phone probably isn't helping the loading speed in this case...)

Also using mobile site on chrome on Android and this happens all the time. Also terribly slow at loading compared to other sites. And sometimes the page has finished loading but you get halfway down the page and it is just blank halfway through a post!

My whole mn experience is plagued and almost ruined by this issue, I had assumed it was just my phone getting slow but also the stupid banner ads loading. I go backwards and forwards between active and threads I don't want until I land on something I want to read, often still not what I was actually aiming for. I wouldn't persevere if I wasn't still breastfeeding in a dark room so often!

Yes this happens to me too!

I assumed that it was the crappy advertising banner along the top taking more time to load than the actual content, so by the time you click on the thread you want the banner has loaded and pushed everything else down.

Oooh, I get this too and I thought it was just me being stupid! Chrome on an Android Samsung. I always assumed it was because the page was actually loading slower than it appear, so while you think you've got Bees in the middle of your screen, Android/Chrome actually has Pigs in the middle of your screen.

Yes this happens to me too! I thought it was the page jumping to start with but it definitely isn't. Mobile site, chrome for Android not sure which version, possibly 5.1 (not the latest one).
